Question

Dress Code

Answer

Autumnal Black-Tie — tuxedos and formal, floor-length gowns or ball gowns. When it comes to colors, think rich, moody, autumnal tones: browns, greens, yellows, oranges, and blacks. For reference, all bridesmaids will be dressed in burgundy red. Theme: Upstage the bride & groom! Think Renaissance Regality — ornate embroidered fabrics, puffed sleeves, dramatic lacy moments, corseted bodices, and rich textures like damasks, brocades and velvets. Accessorize with jeweled pieces, brooches, and gold accents. Channel the elegance of the Renaissance's royalty, poets, and artists. Don’t hold back, we love the dramatics! You are officially invited to a modern-day ball-- so go all out.

When is the Bridal Shower?
